Rolled he vfr on the freeway today!

Well. I have seen this day coming for a while now. I was in Vancouver helping out a niece with her ex moving his stuff out of their condo. He is a bit of a dick and has my niece all upset over this thing and me having the background I have, it was only logical that I be there to keep the peace while he moved his stuff. Everything was going fine and he was finally all moved out. Locks changed and that was that.

But. You know. You keep having things running through your mind wondering if you did everything correct. Late afternoon rolled around and it is time for me to head home. It was to be a 1 hour freeway ride.

I was bombing along westbound Hwy#1 in the slow lane of all places. Traffic was semi busy being a Sunday and people either leaving the city and going home out in the sticks, like I was, or returning home from a weekend of boating and drinking at one of the lakes in the interior. And it happened. AS I was approaching 200th St exit in Langley, doing about 120kmh. IT HAPPENED! IT FLIPPED OVER! I got it over to the shoulder of the road and took some photos. This is the second time this thing flipped over on me. First time was a few years ago while on the same freeway but near Abbotsford.



I guess she deserves and oil change tomorrow. Don't you?

 

Congratulations on your "new" ride, Randy! And custom painted as well.

Was that 200,000km?

 

Congratulations on a second flip. This can only mean great maintenance, but a bulletproof engine design. My '05 should flip next year.

 

Woot woot, and to think this is Randy first bike to boot, I applaud you.

 

Damned straight. 200,000 km. I am really surprised that there is not a 7th digit on the odo on these bikes. Next milestone is 200,000 miles. But I don't know if I will live than long.

 

Good job man!

 

You got that right. Anality in oil changes at its best. Oil is cheap. Even the stupid expensive stuff at the bike ships is worth paying for longevity of bike life.

 

Nice 000000!

 

At first I thought you dropped it in a crash. Flipped over???? Then I see what you are talking aboot. That's only 125,000 miles. You got a looong way to go before you hurt that engine. Good job though I bet you're tickled pink................:tickled_pink:

 

Congrats Randy!! Keep that odo rollin' :congratulatory:

 

Honda should be buying that back to study!
Amazing how you manage to pile on that many miles and keep her in one piece. You must have advanced defensive driving skills Randy! :loyal:

 

Jethro is in the house..........arty2:
Waaaaaaaaaaaazup mate?
Haven't seen you around for a while. Are you still moving South :wink:

 

Man, now I'm tempted to flip odometer and then flip the bike and pretend it's new, use cash to buy low mileage 6th gen with ABS!

 

I'm always moving man, just don't seem to know where or when. South isn't one of the options unfortunately...:blue:

 

Well....Where ever you go as long as you still riding :thumb:
South would allow you to ride more :wink:

 

keep it going randy maint maint maint :cool-new:

 

Congratulations, Randy!!!

 

Nice job Randy! We still need to get out for our ride. My stator/regulator went about 10 days ago so I'm down for another week until the parts arrive but we still need to get out before the season's up!
